SFS Newsletter 2015-11-24 
Thought for the week 

Why does SFS only use and support free-libre open-source software? 
We think free software is good, better than proprietary software. We're like a micro-brewery, a pizza place, or a painting school. We would rather do the thing we love, excellently well, than do everything kinda meh. There are plenty of individuals and companies we can partner with to help those customers who still use pieces of proprietary software. We delegate proprietary software work, so we can stay as sharp as we can on free software, like Linux, LibreOffice, and Zimbra. Get in touch
